Scientific computing, which involves the analysis of complex
systems in real applications with numerical simulations, is an
important area of research in itself, in relation to theoretical
investigations and physical experiments. In many cases, the
underlying mathematical models consist of large systems of partial
differential equations, which have to be solved with high accuracy
and efficiency. Among the successful methods, in particular for
discretizations on unstructured grids, are the Finite Volumes
schemes. This publication contains the contributions presented at
the third symposium on Finite Volumes for Complex Applications,
held in Porquerolles in June 2002. After a critical review of the
submitted papers, 96 papers by authors from over 20 countries are
presented in this volume. The subject of these papers ranges from
theoretical and numerical results such as theoretical foundation
and validation, adaptivity in space and time, higher-order
discretization and parallelization, to physical applications, such
as multiphase flow and flows through porous media,
magnetohydrodynamics, reacting and turbulent flows, elastic
structures, granular avalanches and image processing. The first
symposium of this series was held in Rouen in 1996 and the second
in Duisburg in 1999. These were reported in the previous two
volumes in the series.
